The Internet and chiropractic

CMAJ 1999;160:1288


Further to Terry Johnson's article on chiropractic [full text],1 your readers might be interested to know that I have established a special Web site known as ChiroWatch (www.chirowatch.com). It covers chiropractic practice in Canada, including the battle at York University that Johnson refers to, the tragic death of a young woman in Saskatoon and other issues involving chiropractors in Canada.

The Internet is a powerful weapon in the battle against quackery. We should use it, especially when our government watchdogs allow it to thrive in our own communities. The CMA must take a stand to protect our children from harm. To do less would be wrong.
